I'm thinking that the reluctance to review/merge could be connected to the fact that the patch demands - as I read it - that a theme have set variables for all the various aspects?
I was initially thinking myself of writing a simpler patch that allowed one simple gconf setting, whether to inherit the color scheme from the theme [ie an override of the 'unthemable' notion], then I suppose the natural would be to simply pick up the 'tooltips' color scheme, for the bubbles? Further to that, as I see the actual location troubles some people, some gconf settings for relative transparency, relative location, etc could be worthwhile?
It'd be intriguing to hear whether a gconf 'override' setting could potentially be acceptable, then it may be worthwhile making a more limited patch that makes themability optional / demands no actual changes to the nature of themes?
Hi,
Looking at the patch, as well as the apparent 'unthemability' inherited from the understanding of the Open Desktop Specification described at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/NotifyOSD# Bubble% 20appearance% 20and%20layout
